Arsenal & Chelsea scouts watched 28 G/A sensation score goal of the season contende | OneFootball

Arsenal and Chelsea scouts were reportedly present as Ajax winger Mika Godts scored one of the goals of the season at the weekend.

If you haven’t already seen this absolutely sublime solo effort, stop what you’re doing and take a look at the clip below for an example of what an outrageous talent this guy is…

It’s no wonder they’re comparing Godts to Chelsea legend Eden Hazard, and it seems only a matter of time before someone snaps the young Belgium international up.

According to TEAMtalk, scouts from both Arsenal and Chelsea were watching this game, with the Gunners described as having long had Godts on their radar.

And if the 20-year-old needed one statement goal to really launch his career and convince everyone what he’s capable of, this may have been it.

The report also notes that Godts has 16 goals and 12 assists this season – hugely impressive numbers for such a young player, and just the kind of consistent end-product that Mikel Arteta’s side have been missing from inconsistent performers like Gabriel Martinelli, and even from star player Bukayo Saka, who has had a lot of injury problems.

Mika Godts looks like just what Arsenal are missing

Arsenal have had issues in attack all season, even if they have done well to grind out results that have helped them to the top of the Premier League table and the semi-finals of the Champions League.

Godts looks like a player with the skills to make AFC a bit more unpredictable, with that quick footwork and flair that can change a game in an instant.

Still only 20 years of age, he will also surely continue to improve, so would make sense as a smart long-term investment for a number of top clubs.

Chelsea are well known for focusing on recruiting elite young talents, so would also do well to snap him up if possible, though he’d surely favour the Emirates Stadium right now if he wants to play in the Champions League and challenge for major silverware.
